Ge0ff: the minimum activation chance is 0%, which happens when hp < 10 (e.g. if hp = 9, x_chance_in_y((int)9/10, 27) will be x_chance_in_y(0, 27), which is always false)

-*Prior to [[0.26]], the Sword of Power was a +0, un[[brand]]ed greatsword. Every 10 HP you had increased its enchantment, up to a max of +[[27]].
+*Prior to [[0.30]], the Sword of Power was a +5 [[vorpal]] great sword.
 *In older versions, the Sword of Power's enchantment would vary from -4, -4 to +20, +20, making it anywhere from distinctly bad to being still worse than a well-branded [[triple sword]].
